390 Equipped Survivor: 1967 Ford Station Wagon

Ford has always been a big player in the full-size station wagon field, and 1967 was no exception. That was the third year of a platform that originated in 1965 and would use vertically stacked headlights for the last time. You could choose from three varieties of these large wagons: Ranch, Country Sedan, and Country Squire. The seller refers to this one as a Club Wagon, but that was a name used on the Econoline panel van. It looks too nice to be the basic Ranch and – since it has no wood paneling – it wouldn’t be a Country Squire, so we’re going with Country Sedan, the wagon version of the Galaxie 500. Located in Houston, Texas, the seller has listed this vehicle for sale here on Facebook Marketplace for $10,000.

In 1967, Ford came close to breaking the one-million barrier for full-size car production (952,553), including station wagons. This would come up short against Chevrolet for the top spot. Of all the cars Ford built, 55,387 were 6-passenger Country Sedans and another 36,737 Country Sedans with DFRS (dual-facing rear seats), of which the seller’s wagon is one of the latter. The Country Sedan’s trim level was comparable to the Galaxie 500, while the Country Squire was more like the LTD.

This ’67 Country Sedan appears to be finished in Frost Turquoise with a contrasting blue/green interior. The paint may be original and in overall good condition, though worn to primer in a few small places. We see no rust or references to any, but the seller would have done the wagon a favor by pulling it all the way out of the garage to be photographed. Most of the photos are of the interior and what we see looks quite nice, although the carpeting may stand refreshing. This is said to be the nine-passenger version of the Family Truckster (without miles of fake paneling, that is).

There should be plenty of power to propel this big machine. It has a 390 cubic inch big-block V8 (no photos) that we’re told runs well. This is paired with an automatic transmission and factory air conditioning to keep everyone cool on one of those long trips to Wally World. The odometer is almost ready to roll over at 99,000 miles. If there are no disappointments when inspecting this wagon in person, it could be a nice acquisition for the Cars & Coffee set.

    This ad is skimpy on the details and who is the seller? How do you contact him if no “personal information “? Strange.

    I bought a low-mile Ranch Wagon for my wife, back around 1998 maybe. Excellent car. We did a Clark Griswold style vacation from Ohio to Mt. Washington in NH.

      This triggers vivid childhood memories of a family trip to Mt. Washington in early 70s. We had a ’64 Country Squire. I never saw my dad so scared, trying to keep the brakes and/or transmission from overheating on the way down!

    That’s def the ‘67 wheel. ‘68 had a padded bar straight across the wheel as in my ‘68 Falcon.

    Owned a ’69, bought used in ’79 or so, Ranch wagon, rubber floor mats, 302 engine if I remember right, had 80,000 miles when I bought it, 180,000 when I sold it, automatic, bought for $500, sold at $200, not much rust, frame was solid, the frames rusted on these in New England, so most got junked. Sold because it would not go into Reverse to a guy who wanted a lot of steel around him for his daily 45 mile each way commute, and who did not need reverse. My mechanic thought it might just be a linkage issue, easy and cheap to fix, but it was internal and not easy or cheap to fix, so I bought a ’67 Pontiac Bonneville wagon with every possible accesory for $900.

    I love the old Ford and Mercury wagons. Comfortable, tough and reliable. Not sure that 10K is a good price. Seems a bit high. I think this guy is a flipper, that’s why not too much info.
